Did you have SPD (symphysis pubis dysfunction) while pg? I had it with baby 2 and while it typically heals shortly after birth, mine lasted closer to 9 months pp. It's probably worth mentioning to your OB or PCP. Chiropractic care as well as pelvic physical therapy can be helpful.

I could have written this!!! Just yesterday, my hips began to hurt... Bad! I went to PT while pregnant with my first and I just pushed through the pain when I was pregnant with this LO. I don't know what to do. I was thinking it may have something to do with my posture while breastfeeding, which I know isn't great.

I'm going to start doing some pelvic floor exercises to see if maybe they help. I don't know how long I could live with pain
